Harris County has wrapped up its COVID-19 relief fund application process for residents who were eligible for the second phase of relief aid. 

Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo said applications were accepted on June 23 and June 24.

“We have a moral obligation to take care of our most vulnerable residents,” Hidalgo told Woodlands Online. “Far too many of our neighbors, friends, and family members – through no fault of their own – have lost their jobs. They are struggling to pay rent, their bills, and to put food on the table. As a community, we must rally together to ensure that our most vulnerable residents don’t fall through the cracks. This fund will provide thousands of families with some immediate and much-needed relief.”

The public was able to apply either online or over the phone with a representative.
